Hide Ad1. Being sat in the new bus station in the summer when it gets so hot one is on the verge of passing out from the heat that is generated through the glass roof.
2. Been there in the winter when it’s freezing cold and the wind whips underneath the bay doors.
3. Understands that when it rains you can hardly hear yourself speak due to the noise on the roof. Such a bad design all round.
4. Has waited out in the open in the Drapery. As for him saying the old bus station was hideous, I grant him that.
